365 # 15: Mrs. Ryan

Our sophomore English class may have been a bit rowdy, but this wasn't your first rodeo. You had not the slightest bit of trouble keeping the lot of us in check. I hope you didn't take any offense because we called you "Chia Pet." I'm guessing you'd heard it a few times before, and since you never changed your hair, I'm guessing it didn't bug you all that much. The thing is ma'am, as much as we teased, as much as we horse-played, it was all totally good-natured. In fact, I didn't know a single kid who took your class that didn't love you. Thanks for everything.
